Parent-Teacher Conference Meeting.

One day you'll get a pink or yellow paper from school
with the date and which you can choose the time according to your own schedule. You'll spend 20-30 mins talking to your child's teacher talking about the primarily about your child's progress at school ,social skills ( if she/he have problem interacting ) weaknesses and strength and what goals to proceed to for your kids to be ahead if not at par with other students.

This , I think , is very important for parents have a chance to know to here first hand from the teacher on how your child is doing at school. As much as we want to monitor our kids at all time , we can't be there at school with them to actually see how they function or interact with other children or if they have some struggle with their lessons of if they need extra help. Fortunately , Princess is doing well at school according to her teacher. She is way above average in reading,writing although her teacher says Princess seems to get intimidated when it come to problem solving in math and doesn't like it if she have to explain how she came up with the answer.

I don't know how things are done at our school in the Philippines now a days but I do remember that during my days , teachers doesn't set up a meeting to talk to parents. I hope they are doing this now coz I believe this is important in getting more involved with the education of our children.


Shinjo did well with his recent evaluation at school too. He'd met and exceeded his goals and new ones were set up for him by his teacher. I can't express my admiration for this teachers who just are so loving ,caring and very focus and dedicated with their job. Just imagine having to deal with a bunch of 3-4 years old??
But never did I see in their faces any discontent or negative words even when the kids were not in their best behavior. I think it takes a person to have a genuine good heart to be a pre-school teacher.

Fell Asleep With His A-B-C

Sign of Aging???

Remember the long writer's strike???
For a while there was no new episodes of my favorite shows on TV and I just got tired of watching reruns after reruns of shows I've already seen. Even late night shows weren't as funny as they used to.
So with my thirts for something to watch while I fold the pile of laundry or while ironing heavy jeans and delicate shirts I started watching MSNBC and CNN and all of a sudden I just morphed into a political junkie!!!
This shows like Hardball With Cris Mathews,Countdown With Keith Olberman,Larry King Live and such....I never paid attention to this shows before but now I even record them if I couldn't watch them live.

Politics just caught my attention and now I just can't watch anything else anymore.
Is this a sign of aging??
Now that the writers are back to work , there are new episodes now but I can't keep my eyes in any shows any more. I am so eager to hear what happen to the recent primaries , who's ahead in the election... (BTW , I am for Obama).

It feels like I'm seeting in a classroom and I'm this wide eyed girl learinng new things.
